Building websites without any coding knowledge is becoming easier by the day and places like SquareSpace and Shopify provide easy paths into ecommerce. Creating an online shopfront is also pretty simple with WordPress but many of these places make it easy for you to connect PayPal or whatever merchant services they offer, but is that the route you should go?

Simply speaking, no. You’ll pay more in the long run, possibly a lot more. The percentage rate will be higher and there may be other fees associated with it. Mutu offers a very simple hosted solution for ecommerce and can guide you through it. It simply connects your site to our gateway, making the payment process simple, fast, cost-effective and crucially, PCI DSS compliant.
